Manganese in Virginia soils and correction of manganese deficiency in soybeans (Glycine max L.)
… to provide basic information on Mn in Virginia soils and to evaluate rates and methods of Mn application to correct Mn deficiency in soybeans. Soil profile samples were analyzed from catenas representing the Appalachian, Piedmont, and Coastal Plain regions. The exchangeable, easily reducible, …

Local variability in early Oligocene paleosols as a result of ancient soil catenary processes, Brule Formation, Toadstool Park, Nebraska
… and influence the degree to which certain soil features are preserved in the rock record. When drawing inferences about paleoenvironments based on paleosols, care must be taken to ensure that as many of the soil forming factors as possible are understood. Whereas climates can be ignored …

Weathering and soil properties on catenary sequences in forest and alpine ecosystems of the central Rocky Mountains
The evolution of soil landscapes can be evaluated by studying soil properties along catenary sequences—soil sequences that are hydrologically and topographically connected along hillslopes from higher elevation to lower elevation. Using the catena model, I investigated the manifestation of soil …

A study of forest ecosystem development
… ecosystem of Pinus radiata D. Don. on skeletal soils and integrades to Yellow-Brown Sands. Every endeavour was made to keep other soil forming factors (and the influence of other factors on the ecosystem) as constant as possible, thus satisfying the criteria for a chronosequence. Studies of this …

Time and soil development on lateral moraines, Martin River Glacier, south-central Alaska
<p>During the summer of 1966, eighteen soil profiles on a series of 21 lateral moraines, were studied to ascertain the relationship of time to soil development. The moraines are located on Charlotte Ridge on the south margin of the Martin River Glacier in south-central Alaska. The elevation of the …
